Alexander Hull

I have often felt and frequently— after my habit-
have expressed the idea that Shakespeare has been to
the English-speaking peoples almost as much of a men-
ace in one way as he has an inspiration in another. And
as often as I have uttered the idea I have found it an
exceedingly unpopular one. It was, perhaps, four years
ago that I first ventured, at a boarding house table sur-
rounded by some eight or ten people, to indulge in liter-
ary criticism on this question. I had scarcely launched
myself upon the placid waters of exposition before an
elderly lady, taking advantage of her sex and her sen-
iority, remarked in a disgusted tone (and, may I say,
impolite manner) that I made her very tired, that she
had noticed all young men of my age just out of college
thought themselves privileged to talk in that same way,
and that probably my exceedingly immature view of the
question would be changed by the time I had grown old
enough to have any judgment. Now there is nothing
in the world that insults me quite as much as that vi-

2

THE CRESCENT

cious habit of judging my intellectual capabilities by my
years. But what could I say? Yet my views have not
changed; perhaps because I have not lived long enough.
But now I have my chance. Not one of you can answer
me back, at least not this month. And after that I
do not care— I will likely have another hobby by that
time.

But the menaces that Shakespeare has offered us
have, of course, been quite unwitting on his part. There
are, I think, a number of them but the one that above
all others has impressed me has been the absolute neg-
lect of other playwrights that his plays have caused.
He has incontestably narrowed us. If no other writer
were worth the reading that were well and good, but
that happens not to be the case. The ordinary person
is pitifully unaware of the existence of any dramatist
aside from him— or might as well be as far as any ac-
quaintance with their work is concerned. He ranks his
Shakespeare next his Bible— and there is no third. And
worst of all, to think otherwise is heresy.

First of all we may as well admit that the "immortal
sweet William" is not absoltuely faultless. I have been
blamed for being destructive. But when so many mil-
lions of people are singing his praise I feel it only fair
to even the balances. To begin with his plays are in
some instances amazingly silly with their "fa, la, la's"
and "fee fo fi fums." Do not think I do not realize the
limitations of his times and his audiences. The play-
goer of the time demanded a certain amount of that— and
he got it— at the expense of the play. But is there
really any reason why we should not judge Shakespeare
by the same absolute standard which we apply to other
writers? There are so many who will point you his
beauties— and so few to mention his faults. I have al-

THE CRESCENT

ways had a shrewd idea that most of the people like his
plays because they thought they ought to— because,
with the very few faults one can find in them consid-
ered, they are still superlatively good and I know the
great majority do not really enjoy that kind of things.
And yet his plays are not one half so silly (in their few
silly places) as people's interpretation of them. I re-
member that one day a professor of mine had just fin-
ished reading a passage from "Launcelot and Elaine"
in the most inanely idiotic tone of voice, with the
intention of over emphasizing its sentimentality. He
looked at me with a serene consciousness of the success
of that effort, and said "Now isn't that silly?" But it
made me wildly angry for a moment. "It certainly
is," I answered, "anything would be if you read it
like that!" It was inexpressibly rude but true.

Shakespeare is a wonderful painter with words— so
much so that he has apparently sometimes lost himself
in the mere pleasure of their sound, a proceeding that
may make interesting reading, even literature, but that
certainly makes poor drama. Consequently many of
his plays are far better literature than plays, and, again
consequently, only a limited number of them ever see
the light of publicity on the boards.

His few anachronisms and errors in place or natur-
al history are worthy only a passing notice yet in the
technic of the drama many a modern playwright can
and does put him to shame. But, when all has been*
said, Shakespeare brooks but few rivals. Of the three
who come most forcibly to my mind, who have worked
on a comparable sphere, I wish to dwell upon but one,
the greatest modern dramatist, if not the greatest
dramatist of all times, whose Titanic power, absolute
mastery of form and awful aloofness place him at once

THE CRESCENT

with those giants of old, Aeschylus Seochylus and Sopho-
cles.' Hendrik Ibsen: who not only revolutionized the
drama and laid the way for every serious effort in that field
since his time but single-handed by those same plays
revolutionized Norway, his native land, and brought her
from the mists and shadows of mediaeval tradition into
the light of the present day.

If you think seriously of the stage action you can-
not fail to see that Shakespeare's raging battles and
cumbersome action are obsolete, that his very themes
are antique; literary, yes,— but in comparison with the
steady, powerful, inevitable flow of those plays of Ibsen,
almost undramatic. With themes that concern us here
and now, not themes that merely awaken an historic or
literary passing interest; with language that you your-
self might have used yesterday; with no reliance upon
pompous and grandiose heroes, sweet ladies or gentle
knights, these plays of Ibsen, laid with a master-paint-
er's hand upon the dramatic canvas grip our heads and
our hearts, lay bare our very souls and stir as nothing
else, I verily believe, ever has or will upon the stage.
And yet how many of you know him?

There never was another man whose writings had
such an effect upon his people as this man's. He is
unique. One after another those plays in his hands
flayed and scourged his people until they howled with
rage. They practically exiled him. And then from his
exile in Italy he exposed their hypocrisy and meanness,
their pride and boasting; never angrily, always calmly
and impersonally: but there was a force in those clarion
trumpet tones that waked them from their lethargy,
and roused them from their shame. Today his name is
honored and revered throughout Norway; honored, not
loved. He sat, too stern a judge over his people, to be

THE CRESCENT

5

loved. Yet I think he chose the better part; no popular
writer could ever have done so great a work.

As to his plays, I wish you might, every one of you,
know at least a few of them. In any large library they
are all accessible and even here a few of them may be
had- His earliest ones are tales of the Vikings, very
romatic and utterly different from those later works
founded upon social questions and psychological. Even
these earlier plays (The Vikings at Helgeland; The Pre-
tenders; Lady Inger and the Feast at Solhoug) are
strangely interesting and admirably constructed.
These, with Love's Comedy, were written proir to 1864.
Following them came Brand and the celebrated Peer
Gynt. Then the social plays and lastly the psychologi-
cal. Of course this division is arbitrary. The order is
as f jllows,-The League of Youth; Emperor and Galile-
an; Pillars of Society; A Doll's House; Ghosts; An Ene-
my of the People; The Wild Duck; Rosmersholm; The
Lady from the Sea; Hedda Gabbler; The Master Build-
er; Little Eyolf; John Gabriel Borkman and last, in
1899, When We Dead Awaken. In spite of the confining
of characters, in a great measure, to small, provincial
Norwegian towns they find their counterparts in every
civilized land and make a universal appeal. The plays
have been translated into every important language —
even into Japanese.

Which of them all is the most striking I would not
undertake to say. Peer Gynt is undoubtlythe most
widely known. Candor compels me to say that some of
you will not like them at all, that some of them will
horrify you, that some of them you will not understand.
And yet I hope that you will all try to read at least a
few of them. We are hopelessly narrow in this country
from a literary standpoint. Ibsen's lyric poems are

THE CRESCENT

very beautiful, too, but unfortunately I do not know of
an English translation and was forced to read them
myself in the German. But by all means read some-
thing! You owe it to yourselves to have an acquaint-
ance, let it be ever so slight, with this mighty drama-
tist, of whom the very least we can say is that he is un-
questionably the greatest dramatist since Shakespeare.

tEfje problem of Warn C toil Rations.

(Oration winning second place in local oratorical contest.)

yN a democratic government the key note to suc-
cess and prosperity is the education of its citi-
zens. If we are to lead the nations in progress,
it is necessary for us to educate and bring to a higher
plane of civilization, not only the rich and favored but
also the poor, the ignorant, the ones who have been
imposed upon, those who have not had a chance to rise.
All our inhabitants must be made interested and intelli-
gent citizens.

We have in our midst a race which if educated as
it should be, would be an important factor in the pro-
gress of our nation, but, if allowed to drift as they
have been, will be an eternal hinderance to us. I refer
to the black race— the American negro.

In 1619 twenty colored people were landed in our
country to be sold as slaves. From that time to this
there has been a continual increase of the black race
within our borders until at present there are 10,000,000
colored people in the United States.

Today we are confronted with the problem of our
relation with, and duty toward, this race. In the con-
sideration of this question, we must keep in mind two

THE CRESCENT

7

things. In the first place we know that the two races
must occupy this country jointly, and in the second
place that the progress of one race is dependent on that
of the other.

The American negro is now at a stage when the
white man can shape his destiny or future. Is it not
our duty as a Christian nation to see that he gets the
proper training?

Our first question before we begin to help the ne-
gro must be: Is he capable of progressing under prop-
er guidance, if so what shall we do to help him? An-
other question would be: How shall we manage so that
the negro race and our own may live side by side in
peace?

We do not have to look to the great men of the ne-
gro race for examples of capability. Let us see wheth-
er the negro as a business man has improved his condi-
tion within the past fifteen or twenty years. About fif-
teen years ago a negro started a grocery store in Mont-
gomery with a capital of ninty dollars. This same man
has built up his business until at present it is paying
forty thousand dollars a year.

Let us look for other examples showing capabilities.
In 1900 there were only two negro banks, at present
there are fifty. In a southern city, ten years ago, ne-
groes were not taken into consideration in the business
life. At present they own, one-third of the town, one
hundred business enterprises, and are depositing money
in the banks regularly. A town in Mississippi has a
negro mayor, has negro policemen and councilmen and
is very successful. We find a Richmond bank in which
all the officers are negro women. There is a negro
Wall Street broker. In fact there are successful negroes
in most any business enterprise that we might mention.

8

THE CRESCENT

Thus we see that the black race is fully capable of do-
ing great things.

We know that the negroes' benefit is our gain. He
uses the same roads, rivers and market places that we
do, so we see that his interest is ours.

The colored people own one-eighth of the farms of
the United States. It is a fact that the average crop of
the negro farmer is worth only three hundred and fifty
dollars, while that of the white farmer is worth one
thousand dollars. Therefore it is necessary that the
negro farmer should be educated so that the land may
bring forth its best.

The negro race should help the South to advance
rather than to hold it back. The South at one time had
a wonderful influence. By helping their colored neigh-
bors they may regain their lost prestige.

Many of the Southern white people have found that
the success of the South lies in making a better man of
the black, and this can be done only by educating him
mentally as well as morally.

Let us see what is being done for the negroes' edu-
cation. In the average community we find that they
have only one to five months of school a year. If long-
er the teacher devises some plan of raising money.
This is seldom done except by negro teachers.

Let us compare this state of affairs with that in
Macon County, Alabama. In this county, the children
are taught not only the regular studies but also garden-
ing and farming-

The life of the community centers around the school
and the work of the school has a great influence upon
the surrounding country. Naturally, the white people
see the benefit of education. It is a fact that in an edu-
cated community, there are fewer criminals, the land is
more valuable, and the races are friendly.

Seven million negro children are growing up in ig-

THE CRESCENT

9

norance. Are we to stand by and let this state of af-
fairs continue? No. Such an action would be far from
what would be expected of a Christian nation.

It is necessary that a person should come in contact
with people of the world in order that he may become a
good citizen. We hear of endowments being given to
the rich colleges where none but the moneyed people
may attend. Would it not be better if some of our rich
people would turn their attention to the South and work
for the uplift of the American negro? This education-
al training is necessary for national prosperity.

Just as we found it necessary to educate the people
in the Phillipines in order that those islands might
prosper, so in the United States we find it necessary to
educate the weaker members of our great family in or-
der that we may obtain greater prosperity.

Booker T. Washington says: "The success of our
race will be in proportion to the service that it renders
to the world." Thus we find that the colored people
who attend Fisk University and Tuskegee go there with
the intention of obtaining an education so that they can
help their race and in so doing benefit the nation. By
making themselves useful the negroes find that there is
a chance for them to rise.

We generally form our opinions of the black race
from reading newspaper accounts, wherein only half
the truth is told. The Springfield riot, of 1908, is a good
example of this. In this riot one negro committed a
crime. The whites were not able to get at him so
turned on the whole black race which of course was in-
nocent. Fifty houses were burned. Two thousand ne-
groes fled from the city so that they might find a place
of refuge. Mr. Chafin, the Prohibition candidate for
the Presidency, was injured while defending an inno-
cent black. The mayor of the city was roughly handled
when he attempted to protest. An old negro was taken

10 THE CRESCENT

from his home, beaten and hanged; the charge was that
he had a white wife. We see by these instances that
there is not only a low class of blacks that needs to be
reformed, but that there is also a low class of whites
which needs the same training. This work must be
done by the law abiding citizens.

In the determination of the progress of the black
race and of the relations between the two peoples, the
upheavals of today must not alone decide the question
but a comparative study should be made to see whether
these outbreaks are not becoming less frequent and
violent.

The negro judges his white neighbor just as we
judge him. He finds that a man who is kind to the
negro race is in nearly every case considered one of the
best citizens of the community.

Dr. Curry, a former United States minister to Spain,
has said that he has never helped a negro man, woman,
or child but what he was made stronger and better for
it. This man, shortly after the close of the Civil war,
was not in favor of negro education, but when he vis-
ited some of the Southern schools and found what a
hard time the colored people were having to get an edu-
cation, he sympathized with them and ever afterward
worked for the uplift of the American negro.

In slavery the whites thought that it was to their
advantage to keep the negro in ignorance. Now that
they have liberty, it is plainly seen that it is to the
whites' interest to so educate the negro, that poverty
and crime may finally be eliminated from the black
race. Liberty exists only where the weakest as well as
the strongest people are happy.

Let us strive for the uplift of the American negro,
for in so doing we will not only lift the black race to a
higher civilization, but we will be helping our nation
to prosper. Olin C. Hadley '14.

College atmosphere is a compound formed of various
simples. Temperament of professors and students,
buildings and student activities are usually thought to
make up the bulk of it. Yet there is one factor which
most certainly contributes something and which is
pretty generally ignored. We mean the influence of
natural surroundings. No one can doubt that, con-
sciously or unconsciously, the scenery which a man
looks upon every day makes its mark upon his personal-
ity. A certain professor who was very morbid attri-

buted his condition of mind to the dullness and flatness
of the land surrounding his university. The case is, no
doubt, extreme but it illustrates the fact that the natur-
al surroundings make their impression upon the univer-
sity or college as well as upon the individual. In re-
spect to this phrase of "atmosphere" Pacific College is
indeed favored. Although not surrounded by tourist-
drawing wonders, we are under the spell of fir-clad hills
which would cure rather than cause any feelings of
morbidness. But to receive full benefit of the hills, and
rivers, and trees there must be something more than
unconscious reception of their influence; we must study
them, think about them, ramble on the hills, and row
upon the river. The lines of the college song, "Close
beside Chehalem Mountain" and "Near the old Willam-
ette's banks" should be no empty phrases for us.
